Uses
Manufacturing, Light industry, Heavy industry, Warehousing, Logistics, Building materials, Food

Best for

  • Light manufacturing close to Ras Al Khaimah city
  • Starting in a ready warehouse with the option of land later
  • Tenants who need staff housing on site
  • Businesses weighing free zone against non-free zone set-up

Consider elsewhere if

  • Your customers are mainly in Dubai and need daily deliveries
  • You need your own quay (look at RAK Maritime City)
  • You want a long lease on a ready warehouse, as RAKEZ warehouse leases run year to year

Free zone and mainland

You can form either a free zone or a non-free zone entity here. A free zone entity sells into the UAE market only through an agent, distributor or licensed parent company. Non-free zone entities fall under the UAE Commercial Companies Law, and RAKEZ issues industrial, commercial and professional licences for them.

Tenure. Leasehold from RAKEZ. You can lease a plot and build, including staff accommodation on leased land. RAKEZ warehouse leases run for one year, renewable, with the year’s rent paid upfront. Sub-leasing needs prior written approval from RAKEZ.

Who locates here

  • Construction chemicals and adhesives makers
  • Metal profile fabricators
  • Armoured vehicle manufacturers
  • Food producers
  • Warehousing and logistics operators

Property

RAKEZ leases ready warehouses with an office inside and heat-insulated roofs and doors, and land plots for custom facilities. It has also added self-storage units in the zone.

Formats. Warehouse units, Industrial land plots, Private offices, Staff and labour accommodation, Self-storage units

RAKEZ states that government-supplied power, gas and water are available around the clock.

Our view for tenants

Al Hamra suits manufacturers and storage users that want to start in a ready unit and keep the option of building on land. You can choose a free zone or a non-free zone licence, which matters if you sell into the UAE market. Warehouse leases are annual with a year’s rent paid upfront, so plan for that cash outlay.

Our view for investors

Recent RAKEZ announcements show manufacturers and a logistics operator building their own facilities here, and THi has started a privately developed industrial park. That points to demand from tenants who want buildings made to their specification. Land is leased from RAKEZ, so any investment case rests on its lease terms and its approval for sub-leasing.
